Antonio Carlos Jobim

Garota de Ipanema (The Girl from Ipanema)
Olha que coisa mais linda, Look at this thing, most lovely Mais cheia de graça most graceful É ela menina It's her, the girl Que vem que passa that comes, that passes Num doce balanço with a sweet swinging Caminho do mar walking to the sea Moça do corpo dourado Girl of the golden body Do sol de Ipanema from the sun of Ipanema O seu balançado Your swaying É mais que um poema is more than a poem É a coisa mais linda It's a thing more beautiful Que eu já vi passar than I have ever seen pass by Ah, porque estou tão sozinho Ah, why am I so alone Ah, porque tudo e tão triste Ah, why is everthing so sad Ah, a beleza que existe The beauty that exists A beleza que não é só minha The beauty that is not mine alone Que também passa sozinha that also passes by on its own Ah, se ela soubesse Ah, if she only knew Que quando ela passa that when she passes O mundo sorrindo the world smiles Se enche de graça fills itself with grace E fica mais lindo and remains more beautiful Por causa do amor because of love SongtexteTall and tan And young and lovely The girl from Ipanema Goes walking And when she passes Each one she passes Goes ahhh When she walks She's like a samba That swings so cool And sways so gently That when she passes Each one she passes Goes ahhh Oh, but he watches so sadly How can he tell her he loves her Yes, he would give his heart gladly But each day when she walks to the sea She looks straight ahead not at he Tall and tan And young and lovely The girl from Ipanema Goes walking And when she passes He smiles but she doesn't see She just doesn't see Aus Songtexte Mania
